Nope
The web host installing their new plugin without warning or consent is a big nope. The intrusive icon appearing in the way of one's expected workflow and interface is also a nope. Editors and other admins assuming a colleague installed it can lead to serious issues. I've got 0 stars to give.

Installed without consent
Insane that they would auto-install anything on client sites and think that is ok!

Saves real time on multi-site busywork - I recommend it
The WordPress Agent is the part I mostly use. It saves time on tasks I’d otherwise do by clicking through sites one by one. Example: I got a vulnerability notice for a plugin I run on several sites. I asked the Agent for a list of which sites had it and which versions were installed, then told it to update only the vulnerable ones. That was much faster than doing it by hand. Same for backups. I have different backup plugins across sites. One prompt gave me a list of which plugin is on which site. That alone saved a few minutes.There are some limitations - I asked what backup schedule each site uses (weekly, monthly, etc.) and it couldn’t tell me. It can work with popular plugins like WooCommerce and Yoast, but it doesn’t reliably read the internal settings of every plugin. The free tokens that come with hosting were enough for these bulk jobs. The prompt library in AI Studio is also handy, the prompts work wonderfully in other chat tools if you run out of tokens. If you manage more than one WordPress sites, I recommend it. The Agent is already saving me time, and I’m happy to give it 5 stars.

Installed without consent
This gets a swift uninstall ... and the same goes for all SiteGround plugins

Auto installed
We manage multiple client sites, auto-installing and having to explain a new plugin to 100's of customers is not what we want from our host.
